Week 6 of UNI FB playoffs vs EIU

Re: Week 6 of UNI FB playoffs vs EIU

What would have been the perfect game yesterday?

There's no such thing as a perfect game. Ever. I'm stoked that you're happy with the win; I know I'm stoked about the win; and I'm sure everyone on PN is stoked about the win. But one of the things I love about PN is being able to come and get some perspective about what other fans saw and how we can get even better for the next week.
I don't know tons about X's and O's when it comes to football, so I like hearing people talk about what was both good and bad, both when we win and lose.
No one would say we played perfectly yesterday. And no one would say that we played poorly.
Just please don't discourage others from posting opinions on this page. You probably don't like it when people discourage your opinions, so just allow others to post what they want, and voice their happiness and/or concerns with any given game.

That works two ways, my friend. I see A LOT more crying about my views than vice versa. After all, I'm the only one who's been banned on here for having a differing view, without one single violation of forum rules.

How about that for some food for thought?

Yes, I'm just plain wacky, ain't I folks?

You literally might be.

Re: Week 6 of UNI FB playoffs vs EIU

So, more bad than good in a 53-17 win, then? If not, then where are your positive statements? I haven't read one.

Because you were asking for what it would take to have a "perfect game".

-Bailey made some great throws.
-Bailey made efforts to avoid big hits.
-Bailey had his best day making reads in my opinion
-The RBs played very well outside of the first fumble, which was silly and sloppy.
-Charles Brown caught a pass
-The defense adjusted well and shut them down outside of some big gains.
-The coaching staff was smart to take Dorleant off punt returns. He was having a rough day.
-2nd biggest crowd of the first round
-We neutralized their star defensive lineman

As I said before, ridiculous, exaggerated fixes, such as firing coaches over two losses and placing all of the woes on coaches, require ridiculous, exaggerated replies to them.

They actually don't.

You literally might be.

For having a positive view of a 53-17 win, while arguing with people who found such a win questionable?

If that's wacky, then strike me down, Lord, for I am wacky.

They actually don't.

Really? How have we been winning with such poor coaches then, especially considering when panther0874, or whatever his name is, actually said that winning and losing is a direct cause and effect link to coaches.

Keep in mind: DIRECT cause and effect.

Have you ever seen a perfect game from any team?

For constantly arguing with anyone who doesn't see a win as 100% positive.
For constantly posting hyperbole like "found such a win questionable".

That isn't even a response to my point. How does posting obnoxious exaggerations "fix" what you find to be obnoxious?

People DIDN'T find the win questionable!? Then why have people been arguing with me, when I've been saying that 53-17 in the playoffs is a pretty nifty victory?

Nope. I don't think so. Thus there can be criticism in any game, win or lose. Thanks for making that point.

No one found the win questionable. They thought we could have executed better in some facets of the game. That was simple.

Then why are you expecting perfection? Keep in mind: they won 53-17, for God's sake!

Several did. You may have been one, in fact, who couldn't list for me a positive out of the game.
